Film Review: X-Men Origins: Wolverine



X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
Firstly I love the X-men. Secondly until Singer left i thought the films were spotty dog. Thirdly even though it could be shite i'd still love anythign about them cos i think they're all kick ass. It didnt bother me that this film wasnt finished, in fact quite the opposite. I was a bit on the "gone" side while watching this an the unfinished scenes both confused me and humored me at the same time. The plot itself is semi-decent and the fights scenes exactly what you'd expect but some of the charcters are shockingly badly used. i mean SHOCKINGLY. watching the tralier you'd never believe what they do to some of them, now apparently there will be some extra footage in the finished print but overall they'd need a hell of a fucking step up from the streets to get this film at a reasonable decent level. For those that have seen the film check this out; http://www.postmodernbarney.com/2009/04/advance-spoilers/ I'd like to say i enjoyed this film for what it was but the fact i saw the rough cut version actaully made it more enjoyable than the finshed version would ever be - now what in boss hogs tarnation does that say about the film? Exactly. this is a popcorn braincandy of a half-made film. I'd recommened getting slightly fucked up and sititng down with a few mates to watch it and just laughing your tits off at it. A hellova poor attempt at a summer blockbuster and only really made enjoyable by the laughability factor at watching the unfinished cut. Semi-decent in halfway made kind of way. 2 /5
